We are both diagnosed with genital herpes. We are also trying to get pregnant. I was just wondering what the risks are to the baby if I were to become pregnant. Is it a bad idea to even try to have a child? I couldnt live with myself if I harmed my child. Please tell me the risks and what I can do to reduce them.

I'm iron deficient and I get nauseous from iron supplements. I tasted the Floravital mix from a friend that had it, and I'm wondering if anyone has had success (increased iron in blood tests) because of taking it?
It doesn't have much iron in it, but it's said to be a lot more absorbable.

Since age 12, I was diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome, & now, I'm 23 & the current psychiatrist doesn't believe I have it. My family & social workers think I'm using my TS as an excuse to get out of trouble. I really can't help cursing, & my tics & outbursts are anxiety-induced. Anxiety brings on the onset of my tics & outbursts. In the place I'm living now, the social workers punish me & make me suffer consequences for every time I curse, & I can't help it. I still have strong symptoms.

I know that coffee and soda (and especially alcohol) can dehydrate -- and those things ALWAYS make me thirsty for water -- but, today even drinking orange juice is making me feel dehydrated.

So tired. ............

I always feel so tired and i get enough sleep. I am not anemic, and feel in good health, apart from the tiredness. I do the usual daily thing, get up, take my son to school, go to work, come home do the house work, etc etc. My day does vary so it is not all a set routine.

I just cant seem to shake this forever tiredness feeling. My diet is ok, i get enough exercise, although i do feel slightly fed -up but that is due to feeling so tired. I am beginning to think it could be depression, but would it make me feel so tired? All i want to do is sleep. Ive suffered depression before but it wasnt this extreme.

Could i be lacking certain vitamins/minerals?

Anyone else ever felt like this, and how did you shake it off?

Any advice would be appreciated.

35 year old female.

My last period began on Oct 7th. I had unprotected sex with my BF on Oct 12th (the day my period ended) then again on Oct 17th. Is it possible that I could have gotten pregnant? Today is Nov 2nd and I have been experiencing some LIGHT nausea at various times throughout the day today and my breast have been extremely SORE for a few days now.

A little history: I am 34 years old and never been on birth control and never have been pregnant. Just recently have been trying to conceive. My periods have been like clock work for over a year now with 27-29 day cycles. However for the past 3 months my periods have been messed up. I have been late. VERY LATE for the past 3 months, on 38-42 day cycles. I noticed about a week after my period, about the time I had sex on the 17th, that I had ALOT of cervical mucus and as the week progressed, it got thicker. So is it possible that I was ovualting that soon AFTER my period and became pregnant on the 17th? Any thoughts on this is greatly appreciated

Once and awhile I will experience a weird problem with my hands or feet.

One hand will be feel really hot, internally and to the touch, and the other will be icy cold. Same thing happens with my feet, one will be hot and the other, cold. Then it will switch.

Sometimes my hands will be really hot, but my feet will be cold, and vice versa. This usually happens more when I am at my desk at work typing or using the mouse, or if I happen to play a video game and use a two-handed controller.

Any thoughts?

My insurance is great: It lets me choose from more than 3,000 possibilities for my primary care physician.

Its search engine is mediocre: I can see a small amount of info on each physician (location, gender, languages spoken, specialty, and year graduated) but no aggregate data.

My social skills and networking are poor: Any time I ask a co-worker or friend for advice, the conversation just embarrasses both of us. I have no dependents.

Ideally, my physician would score high points on the following:

1. Communicates extremely well in English, especially by e-mail, and will spend sufficient time to answer my questions and verify my I understanding.

2. Shares my focus on prevention and health, not treatment.

3. Has a staff that understands the insurance bureaucracy and can take most of the administrative burden off of me.

4. Stays current on recent research and findings.

I don't know why or whether to prefer "Family Practice" over "Internal Medicine" or "General Practice".
